TWINKLE BUNTING
I love how decorating the house at Christmas time brings back so many family memories.
We have some decorations that date back quite a few generations and I especially like these old pieces. When setting out to design
this bunting I wanted to create some crochet motifs that echoed the shape of our precious vintage Christmas tree baubles.
I have added beads, bells and little 'shisha' mirrors to add a touch of sparkle and I am so pleased with the results.
The pattern for the bunting is written with three classic shades in mind - Navy, Mustard and Grey,
but you could raid your stash for multicoloured left overs to create a very different, vibrant look.
You can find the 8 page paper brochure pattern by following this link.
You can find the download version on Ravelry and Etsy.

To make the classic colour way, as written in the pattern, you will need 1 x 100g ball of Stylecraft Life DK in shades Navy 2313, Caramel 2446 & Silver Grey 2341. To make the multicoloured version I used small amounts of 11 shades
